This was a "bold" prediction thread. After some time of analysing (3 minutes) i had changed my mind.

But here is the original prediction just incase:

 

Wii U will pass XBOne by Q2 2015. 

But don't worry, the XBOne will pass the Wii U again after Q3/Halo ;)


Isn't that bold, lol? 

I must have been pretty drunk to think that.

They have to announce a Pokemon MMO to this even become a possibility.

Why is this a bold prediction?
What have you got to lose?
There's nothing courageous about an act if there's 0 risk.

Umm... ok then... ban me for a week if this doesn't happen.



I'd say not a chance in hell. Unless I'm missing something the Wii U is now in 3rd place and 3rd place is where it will stay. What will the gap be by the end of 2014? Surely it will be 1-1.5 million in favour of the Xbox One by that point at least. Also, I know that there are a few decent games coming out for the Wii U like Smash etc. But you have to think that anyone who wants a Nintendo console for Nintendo games has mostly been swayed already by Zelda, Mario, Mario Kart etc that has already hit the system.

So, no chance in hell for me I'm afraid.



PREDICTIONS FOR END OF 2015: (Made Jan 1st 2015)

PS4 - 34M - XB1 - 21m - WII U -12M

I call this prediction more silly then bold.

X1 Q1 line up has more selling potential then the all of Wii U's 2015 line up combined (excluding Zelda)

I would've thought the last few months would have taught people that a big 3rd party title even if multiplat is far more of an asset then niche exclusives (most of Wii U's 2015 line up).

And people still adding amiibo to lists of things that will boost Nintendo hardware? Time may prove me wrong but Amiibo's main audience is a 30 year old man child who already is picking up a Wii U for smash

The only thing that could make this prediction less ridiculous is if Nintendo do a massive price cut in Q1. Even then the momentary sales advantage (say a 10k weekly difference in favour of Wii U- me being extremely generous) will not be enough to erase the 1m lead Microsoft is about to score this holiday.

VGC is having problems again. "& Amiibo" should have looked like this (pls tell me you can see the image):

It was a joke in the thread.

Also, about this being more silly than bold:I really wanted to post a bold prediction and this is the boldest one i could come up with that is the most "realistic"... yeah, imagine what my other bold predictions are. 



just also add that no price cuts would happen to both consoles. if XB1 would keep their price cut, won't happen. if XB1 return to $400 and Wii U have a price cut for another $50 then it might happen.
